Welcome to Crucianize, pronounced like Crucian Eyes! I’m delighted to share my unique journey as a Crucian woman living as an expat in France with you. Through this website, I aim to document my experiences, passions, and projects, all while celebrating my Caribbean heritage.

As a Crucian woman, I embrace the vibrant culture and rich traditions of the U.S. Virgin Islands. However, my life has taken me across the seas to France, where I continue to explore and navigate new horizons. Crucianize serves as a platform to chronicle my adventures, challenges, and discoveries as I bridge the gap between my Caribbean roots and my life abroad.

One aspect of my website focuses on the products I test for various brands. As an avid consumer and an enthusiastic supporter of quality craftsmanship, I thoroughly examine and review products that pique my interest. You can expect honest and insightful feedback, helping you make informed choices in your own purchasing decisions.

In addition to product testing, I’m deeply passionate about genealogy. Uncovering and preserving my family history is a profound journey that connects me to my ancestors and their stories. Through my genealogy projects, I hope to inspire others to embark on their own quests for self-discovery, unraveling the tapestry of their lineage and preserving their heritage.

Another essential part of my identity is my dedication to preserving and passing on my Creole language to future generations. I believe that language carries the essence of a culture, and I’m committed to teaching my children the beauty and significance of our native tongue. I share my experiences, strategies, and resources on Crucianize to empower others who share this vision and seek to instill cultural pride in their own families.

Thank you for joining me on this remarkable journey. Together, let’s celebrate the magic of being a Crucian woman, explore new frontiers, support meaningful products, honor our ancestry, and nurture our language for generations to come.

Warm regards,

Lyly
